Who else is bored? Same Content and Formula...Was SB a waste of money?

[Ayer2015]

I fail to see why they would change the way dungeons and raids are deployed... Its a system that works and as other have stated, most innovative content the player base didn't like. There is more than enough to do in this game for people not playing excessively.

All I'd like is devs to spend less time making potd which is the same room repeated, lord or verminion which is wasted time and make things like the dungeons less like a corridor. The chocobo racing could be great, if your chocobo gained xp from it....

How many primals does the warrior of light need to slay before there aren't any more? Since 2.1 it's been "oh look, another primal... get to work WoL" (insert two hours of fetch quests to unlock)

How many beast tribes and different religious groups exist in Hydalin?

Maybe until we defeated the Ascians

SB pleasantly surprised me. I found it better than HW in story department, VA, OST and dungeon design and mechanics. The new types of quests spiced up the game and it was a wonderful time playing the MSQ. I have only some complaints about the job skill changes and balance, the boring gear designs and the recycling of the HW skins and some complaints about technical aspects of the game like how the hell a top premium MMORPG can't handle a simple FATE with some people on same place while all the other MMOs can handle way more people on same place.
SB was an improvement.

I don't know if it was a total waste of money, but the story was pretty bad and too fast moving. Subbing for the next two years to grind tomes is a waste of money though.

So many comments in this thread are laughable. Welcome to MMOs people. It's called an expansion and not a new game. Of course you're going to get the same end game because that is what players want! Are we really asking for removal of savage, aether currents, and tomestones because it's "not new"? This would be a terrible game if that was the case. I mean, yeah, there wasn't a lot of new systems (though there are some) mostly because the game...just didn't need them. FF XIV doesn't need to reinvent the wheel because what we have is good. Want experimentation? Look at the train wreck that is WoW's legendary and artifact weapons system. I'll take what I know already works for me, with a new story, new areas explore, and new bosses with different combinations of mechanics.

Is anyone advocating for the removal of content?

If anything, that would seem kind of counter-intuitive in my opinion.

I can only speak for myself, but as a long-time player, I would love to see SE continue to implement new content. Sure, Diadem was a big flop, but I do appreciate the fact that they tried.

Yes, a few posts have. Some posters here want a different experience, and that means scrapping the systems that work. "I don't want to grind tomestones or do savage, that's boring because we did it for an entire expansion."

I want new content too, just not different kinds of content. I think we have enough "content systems" in place where the devs can just add to them. Raids, dungeons, deep dungeon, and all that other content, works. So why not focus on adding more dungeons (so we're not 1-3 dungeons in any one patch--why not 6-8?). Or instead of only releasing the Alliance raids in one difficulty, make a savage version so there is a new raid tier every 3-4 months?

I really believe we have enough content systems. Just need to fill out those content systems with more and more new content.

Endgame is still boring as hell. I'm just leveling some alts until GW2:PoF comes out.

[bswpayton]

people just will trip about anything they are adding new content, super savage, eruka however u spell it, they have said that we will be able to use our squadrans soon I think in 4.1, they also said they were lookin into making more savage style 4 man content for potd all of these things have been confirmed it just didnt come out in 4.0. And lets not blame this all on SE all the time Im sure who nova blasted the msq in probably two days which was the main basis of the whole expansion you know in a story driven game.

And again like someone else has said storm blood is an expansion can the devs really help that the player base chooses to run everything unsync and ignored all other form of content below level 60. One would think that you all these people in here thought they got a brand new game instead of just an expansion
